Old back injury is acting up pretty badly. Problem, besides the pain, is that we're taking our grandchildren on a trip next week. Their parents are being stationed in S. Korea for the next 4 yrs. and they're leaving the 1st week of Dec. so cannot reschedule. This means we will probably only see them 4 times during the next 4 yrs. Freaking out because I am going on this trip regardless but it would be better if I'm not in pain. So PLEASE pray that God heals my pain. If He decides I have to suffer the pain, maybe He could have it start after our trip?

Try ibuprophen and Tylenol (acetaminophen). 2-3 (200 mg each) ibuprophen with 500 mg acetaminophen together every 4-6 hours. Amazing pain relief.
I cannot take Tylenol but I appreciate your suggestion. Thank you!
Once when I had a lot of inflammation in my knees, the Dr. prescribed 800 mg ibuprofen. That's like taking 4 regular ibu's and you can do that 3 times per day. You would not want to do this regimen more than a couple of weeks, it's very hard on your stomach. Take with food.
